In the coach, we had to have some sort of entertainment. Eh, its 9 hours ride. You can't possibly sleep the whole journey! Besides the first 2 hours too excited to sleep la! Somemore need to go through customs and all.
Most of us brought DS Lite.
Special thanks to Gek for lending me your DS lite! I joined the gang ;P
I'm telling you, 2 things that are essential- entertainment and jacket on the coach.
(I know I mentioned this in the Part 1 but I must really emphasize!)
We depart in the evening so the weather is pretty comfortable. After a while, we started to doze off to sleep.
And then we reached Terraganu in the morning! We stopped by at erm, dock?
It was PH weekend and so so crowded. While waiting for the boat, we walked around. Just next to the dock-es, there were rows of souvenirs. Whats new?
Apparantely, each resort had its own dock. So you need to find your correct dock to bring you to your resort.
On board the ferry!
It was freezing cold la! And another one hour of riding in the ferry.
Then Justin shared with me his Japan photos. Tried to nap but honestly the ride was a lill rocky.
When we arrived at Laguna(FINALLY!), we were being brought in to a waiting room. In batches, like class by class going for assembly talk. -___-
The GRO brief-ed us on all the nitty gritty details of the hotel. Then FINALLY FIANLLY we get to go into the heart of the resort. With more waiting. -___-
But really its because of the crowd for PH.
While waiting, we walked around and took pictures!
Well, my honest opinon of Redang;
I was expecting crystal blue water with vast of white sand. Endless horizons with beach chairs lining the sandy beach.
What I saw was hotel rooms within close proximity of the beach. The beach horizons was tainted by boats and such.
It was sucha pity really. Coz the water was indeed crystal blue and sandy beach.
Some random pictures. Heh heh heh.
Finally finally finally check in, we went to check out our room. Girls one room, guys one room. Our room is SEA VIEW ROOM! We have the rooms that are of close proximity to the beach.
We then took a quick shower and met outside the room.
For what?
To eat our free meals la! As mentioned in Part 1, our package comes with 3 meals and just in time, we arrived for lunch.
The restuarant is above the lobby, and both of them faces the beach directly. Couldnt resist but take photos.
Luckily, the rain stopped after a while and we decided to go to beach!
I tanned, while the rest went into the water to frolick. WAHAHAHHAAHA.
We actually went to borrow beach soccer and beach volleyball too. Had to pay deposit. So do bring cash as and when you are outta the room. Don't have to pay for meals but pay for the other stuff.
Theres scheduled timings for the snorkelling trips. Just at about 2pm, Justin jostled the whole lot of us to go for it.
I wasn't that keen initially, I know for sure gonna be crowded. And I really do appreciate the beach sun.
But well, majority won me over!
Picking up our gear.
Bloody crowded. It was quite a sight to see greenish sea water littered with reddish dots.
Took this picture coz I saw the auntie damn scared but this very nice guide tried to convince her and followed her to the water.
But Malaysian guides working by the beach all very hum sup. The whole lot of us(girls la, not the guys) got looked at and was being stripped naked with their bare eyes.
Oh wait, not just Malaysia. Indonesia too. And Thailand too. Went Bintan also so many times got looked at. Phuket too.
And I am definetely not wearing anything revealing. I came in T-shirts and shorts also like tht. And could hear some weird noises when walked past.
Kenna this type of shit. =(
Well, there are some underwater pictures, will post on another blog. =)
Ok then, as of now, this will round up an entry for Redang trip.
There are still some more parts!
Like the day after the snorkelling, next day, next day evening, last day, last thoughts and the underwater pictures.
Oh let me know if you enjoy it yah? If negative, then I see how I can improve.
SEE I AM SO SERIOUS ABOUT THIS.
